​MSA's Kind Model Series is baaaack! When we first found this enchanting animal lover, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to interview her. Her words of wisdom, passion of all things sustainable, and desire to one day open a farm animal sanctuary were not only impressive, but also inspiring. Check out what this down to earth beauty has to say about diet, animal cruelty, the fashion industry, and more!

Jackie Almeida is often described as a natural beauty, but if you take the time to read her blog at JACKIELAND.COM or chat with her on any of her social media accounts it doesn't take long to realize she is SO much more than a successful model! This woman has a contagious energy and incredible spirit that will instantly make you strive to be better, its insane!

What is VARG you ask? According to the IG page of Therese (or any of her social media accounts), it means VIVIDLY AWARE, RIGHTFULLY GREAT. When I first read those words, it was a reminder that each and every one of us has something positive to offer the world, you just have to listen to what your heart is telling you and not always the voice inside you head. Lets find out more about this inspiring model and her views regarding animals and what it means to be compassionate.

​So, we are FINALLY kicking off the long awaited Kind Model Series and the first model in our lineup is the beautiful Nicole Renee. Nicole comes to us from Tampa, FL and we are so honored to have her launch this series for us and share her thoughts and a little bit about herself, THANKS NICOLE!!!

Congratulations to Kimberly winning our September Cover Model Contest! We are loving the pictures of her rescue yorkie, Daisy! Kimberly will receive the September Petite Vour subscription box, a $25 H&M giftcard, and a certificate from MSA. Congrats Kim!

The Fashion Fights Poverty 10th anniversary gala took place November 13 at the French Embassy. It was a bittersweet night as the tragedy in Paris took place but the show continued at the French Embassy.
